Question: How is the group related to “existence from absence” (Yesh mi Ayin)? Why should it provide me with forces that it has no connection to?

Answer: The group does not belong to Yesh mi Ayin, and therefore, it can give you additional strength. The strength of the group lies in its connection to our root where all souls are united together.

Therefore, here in our world, through my external actions, I can awaken those upper forces in which the power of my ‘”I” is not merely an individual force, as it is in the corporeal world, but is inseparably connected with another 599,999 such forces.

At our root, I and all the other souls exist on the level of Adam HaRishon. Therefore, while living in our world, I can draw strength from my root.

Question: What should one expect from the commandments of the Torah?

Answer: A “commandment of the Torah” consists of extracting the concept of the “Torah of life” from the Torah, attaining life itself. Baal HaSulam writes about this in TES (The Study of the Ten Sefirot). He refers not to the study itself, but to its result.

Question: Suppose a person is sweeping the floor in our building or working in the kitchen. Is this considered that he is studying Torah?

Answer: If I do something in our kitchen and intend thereby to attain something in my life, then the desire that arose in me at that moment, multiplied by the good, beneficial thing that I contributed to the group, that is, multiplied by the group’s collective desire to attain spirituality, becomes my own desire.

By serving my friends, I thereby acquire their desires, include myself in them, and then those desires influence me, and direct my own desire into the proper course.

As a result, during the lesson I intend to draw the light of the Torah that reforms from what I study, not to become a great sage or anything else.

Comment: You say that everyone has their own path.

My Response: Of course!

Question: What does it depend on?

Answer: Within the global nature of humanity, we are so different so that, precisely through our future connection, we will create one universal structure called “Man” (Adam).

Question: Will everyone have their own place?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Every nation?

Answer: Of course! I may be spinning at tremendous speed, others spin more slowly, and still others even more slowly, it is just like in our body there are systems that operate with tremendous speed and intensity, while others function much more slowly. You can compare the fingernails and toenails. Fingernails grow about a millimeter a week, while the toenails grow about a millimeter a month. Each has its own rate, even though it is seemingly the same tissue.

Comment: Yet it is one organism.

My Response: Yes.

Question: You mentioned the goal. Is the goal the same for everyone or not?

Answer: The goal is the same for everyone. But who actually knows what it is? If we knew that we all have one goal, we would agree with one another. We would begin searching together for how to attain that goal.

But instead, we feel that everyone has their own. Egoism tears us apart and does not allow us to feel that we all must move together toward one goal.

Question: Can we nevertheless come to this? Will we be brought toward this one goal or not?

Answer: I think it must become clarified from within.

Question: What is that goal?

Answer: The goal is very simple: to attain the meaning of life.

Question: And what is it?

Answer: The meaning of life? It is to attain its meaning.

Questions: So the question arises, and I must?

Answer: When I attain the meaning of life, I feel absolutely fulfilled! I know why I exist. I know who governs me, to whom I turn, what I am carrying out at every moment of my existence, and where I am going. Ever new horizons open before me. I feel like a child who has entered Disneyland. And all of it is incredible! All of it is a fairy tale! This is how a person should feel when revealing the Creator’s plan.

Question: Does everyone have their own meaning of life, or not?

Answer: Everyone will enjoy it individually, because that is how we are made. But each will enjoy it from the fact that they are constantly connecting with others. The revelation of this spiritual “Disneyland” comes from the fact that we reveal the integral connections between us more and more. And they will be revealed precisely as the attainment of the upper world. It is a serious adventure.

Question: So now you have come to the conclusion that the goal of a person is to attain the upper world?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Is that the goal of a person?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And what is the upper world? We are speaking to people who do not study Kabbalah. Simply put, what does it mean to attain the upper world?

Answer: It is to attain the harmony of the interaction of all the completely different forces of nature. And to feel that harmony when you see how all problems, actions, thoughts, aspirations—everything, throughout all times—join together, and all of it turns out to be harmoniously interconnected, so necessary for one another, that the revelation of this harmony is the revelation of the thought of Creation, the Creator’s plan.

Question: And you constantly speak about revealing harmonious relationships between people. Is that included in this?

Answer: Of course! Naturally. That is the highest degree of all this harmony.

Question: The highest degree? That we are all harmoniously connected?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And this is the purpose of a person’s life—to discover this harmony?

Answer: Yes.

Question from Facebook: Your stance is to proceed via the path of suffering. You say that when we are backed into a corner, we will see the Kabbalists are right. Is there another way? Can you convince us without scaring us.

Answer: If my position were to “proceed via the path suffering,” I would not say anything or giving public presentation. But I really want humanity to develop in a good way.

I am against the path of suffering. I am in favor of our path being illuminated by the upper light and it leading us forward. Please do not take my assessments as scare tactics.

I simply take a sober look at the prospects of humanity, at its “starting condition,” and see that we are in free fall. Egoism is growing within us, yet we are not compensating for this growth and we are not correcting our trajectory.

I really hope we can pull ourselves together and not sink into suffering before starting our ascent. The best thing that can happen to humanity is the timely recognition of egoism and the correct self–realization that rises above it.
